Great podcast guys xxx ❤️
OMG~ Hello, Louise! Thank you so much for your comment. "We didn’t see you comin like Super Magic!” Haha! We would love to have you on our show sometime!! Can’t wait for the Greatest Hits album!!
I will always love eternal and am very sad that they are not getting together and coming back! miss good music and a good group ❤
Now that the sisters are back together, will be interesting to see how their performances go! Not sure there is much demand there..
i've got to say the whole convo from 39:11 to 40:52 is GOLD and probably my favorite we've had this year! LETS go SEASON 3
This group was just everything, appreciate you guys for going down the eternal discography I love all 4 of there album . Awesome job keep it up
Thanks so much for watching and glad you enjoyed the episode! Any requests for our next 101s?
@@CCTVPOPS There is artist name Kina cospers she was in brownstone and then she went solo and release her debut album in the year 2000 , j would love if you could do a video on Kina Cospers
Nice video guys. Fun fact...BeBe Winans wrote "Crazy", the last single from their debut album. Nice that he collaborated with them again 2 albums later on the single "I Wanna Be the Only One"
Ah thanks so much - that's a great fun fact!!!
Eternal and Clive Davis both wanted angel of mine, clive agreed to let eternal release it internationally but not america. Monica could have it exclusively for america. love this podcast great job xxx
Ooh good to know!!!! Clive Davis really has a good ear...
absolutely love the pop 101 series, we need a Louise episode soon!
Thanks so much! YES - Louise is definitely on the list...anyone other requests?
@@CCTVPOPS All Saints!
This is so great! You guys really did do a deep dive. Much appreciated! A Louise one would be great. Keep up the good work. 😊
Hi Richard, thanks so much for checking us out and glad you enjoyed it! Noted on Louise...so excited for that GH album!
Love eternal...so many hits and childhood memories, interesting that they were all so talented, but so mismatched, that was infact kelle doing the raps btw....I think kelle was very underrated and mulitalented and looked down on by the sisters.
Hey Ben, thanks so much for watching!!! And thanks - Kelle is awesome!
14:17 I think it might've been Kéllé who rapped on that song, and if not, then God strike me dead 🥳
AH! Thank you so much. I hope you remain unstriken haha!
Always enjoy listening to you two go over things in great detail. Keep it up 🙏🏻
Ahh thanks so much!! Lots more content to come...any requests for the next POP 101s?
Erm anything Girls Aloud / Steps / Sugababes I say. But I always enjoy whatever you do ❤️
Kelle is now a major tv presenter in the uk, she's on the uk version of the view (loose women). Allegedly tj only lasted for a few days then quit lol
The tabloids were dragging Easther and Vernie after Kelle got kicked out so the public did sort of turn against them after this unfrortunately.
Ah yes!! Glad Kelle is still doing well!
Kelle was not kicked out! Greatest Hits was prematurely released because Kelle wanted to leave the group (she requested so many times) and wasn’t even recording with the group or turning up to recording sessions! Basically Kelle left of her own accord and then made out she was kicked when she was promoting her debut solo single. Kelle even made out she was fired by fax. #lies #dramaqueen
The fourth studio album Eternal did not do very well in the UK because Kelle was doing a lot of press criticising Easther and Vernie. The sisters said Kelle didn’t want to be in the group and the Greatest Hits was rush released because she wanted to leave. Kelle said she didn’t want to leave and being asked to leave came as a total surprise. So who is telling the truth? This was all covered on the Big Reunion anyway.
The Eternal album did better in other countries like Spain where Kelle was not doing interviews. Here is a performance of Treat Me Like A Lady in Spain…

This interview in 1999 is very interesting. I think Vernie receives too much criticism. She’s smart, assertive and direct. Why put that down?!

This one too…

Ultimately I would love to hear an Easther Bennett solo album. Her voice amazing. I Am Blessed is one of my favourite vocals. 🙌🏻
Thanks so much for the context and the links!! There's always two sides to a story - definitely a communication breakdown!
Thanks guys, great show. Eternal gossip for ya: eternal were set to reform as a foursome in 2010 after LOUiSE secured a deal and management for them. E & V insisted they had separate management and the deal effectively fell apart. Easther gets a hard time. The reality was, as the big Sis, V was very much in charge. Louise and Easther were very close at one point, but there was always a tension with V and Kelle and Louise. Imagine V left and we just had E, K and L. That would’ve been great. eternal were also my ‘in’ to Sugababes. Pre eternal I was a smiley Kylie obsessed. But eternal pulled me in. In the U.K. we didn’t have much access to US mainstream music unless it hit here. So eternal felt groundbreaking in style and sound in the U.K. They were the first girlband to sell a million units of a debut album. Well that’s my trivia. Over n out 😂
That’s interesting. Maybe the management issue was financially driven? Was Louise commanding a higher fee or more lead vocals?
@@1977UK I ‘think’ the issue was going with management they didn’t select would possibly give them little control. It’s would’ve been a 4 way split and a celebration of Always and Forever, so LOUiSE knew her role on that album, and knows having Easther is an advantage as lead.
@@thepopfiles4294 well hopefully a 30 year celebration reunion works out! 🙏
@@1977UK not on the cards. That’s why Louise has reworked eternal classics for her greatest hits.
@@thepopfiles4294 possibly. Who knows what conversations the Eternal members have between themselves. I cannot see a public appetite for a Louise Greatest Hits album though.
They were formed in 1991 not 1992, I always say this because the media always right 1992. Eternal were together for 2 years before they released ‘Stay’. They had a year to get to know each other and to see if it’s what they wanted to do the they started making their album ‘Always & Forever’ which is the first album by a girl group to sell 1 million copies in the UK.
Ahh thanks so much for the correction - good to know!!
You don’t mention ‘So good’ from the ‘Always & Forever album. By the way, I’m loving this, Eternal are the best!!
Ahh "So Good" is actually one of my favorites! We didn't want the episode to be too long so didn't have a chance to get to it. Glad you enjoyed the episode!! What other artists would you like to see us do a POP 101 about? - Chris
It's kelle who raps
Hey John, thanks so much - noted, she sounds awesome!!
Its not Kelle on lower notes, its Vernie
Thanks for the clarification! Vernie sounds great!
A lot of the time it's actually Kelle on the low notes, Vernie in the middle. They did alternate. But watch the video of them doing something inside so strong in the studio, you hear their set up. Kelle on the bottom, then Louise, then Vernie and Easther on the top notes.

Please update when the sisters were transphobic, lost kelle and Louise for a reunion because of that, then got a new member and couldn’t sell a car park and it got cancelled….. karma 👌🏽🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
Oof yes, we gotta discuss! Stay tuned!
